Nangong Jin's words fell, and there was silence for a while.

Father Qin was shocked by his decisiveness, and even more surprised that he had even thought of a written note, just to block his later rebuttals.

And Nangong Jin stopped speaking after speaking, and just looked straight at Father Qin like that.

From Qin's father's point of view, it was a relatively stupid behavior for him to gamble his life because of his impulsive emotions and affairs.

As far as he is concerned, it is just to say what he thinks in his heart, so as to give Father Qin a comfort, and it has no effect on him.

Father Qin didn't know that as far as Nangong Jin was concerned, even if there was no persecution from Father Qin today, he would not marry anyone other than Qin Ran thought in his life.

He was born in the Nangong family, which was already in decline, his mother died in childbirth because he gave birth to him, and his father didn't like him.

And he, born boring, doesn't like to laugh, comes and goes, and everyone in the house doesn't like him.

There were even rumors that he was unknown, and in this way, he grew up to ten years old in the midst of his father's indifference and the discussion of his subordinates.

In the early winter of that year, his father died of illness, and he and his half-sister Nangong were taken to the Qin Mansion.

He still didn't talk and didn't pay attention to anyone, and of course, no one wanted to pay attention to him.

He still remembered the day he first saw Qin Ran, which was the first snow of that winter.

He leaned in front of the window and looked into the distance, and the seven-year-old Qin Ran broke in with a body of wind and snow, with the fragrance of plum blossoms and the coldness of the wind and snow.

The cold wind hit him, and he looked back impatiently at that time, and was about to reprimand her for intruding at will, but it happened to crash into her eyes.

He was slightly stunned, Qin Ran had already smiled at him, and his voice was clean and clear, "You are the cousin who has just entered the mansion?" I heard that you have to drink medicine when you are sick, and it is very bitter to drink medicine. ”

Nangong Jin was still stunned, and Qin Ran had already said to himself, "I brought you sugar, and with it, the medicine won't be bitter~"

It was the first time that someone smiled at him since Nangong Jin remembered, and it was also the first time that someone braved the wind and snow to come, just to bring him a piece of candy when he was sick.

The sugar was sweet and sweetened his heart.

After being silent for a while, Father Qin spoke, interrupting Nangong Jin, who was stuck in memory, "Okay, you go back first." ”

Nangong Jin got up, bowed again, and said, "Nephew, thank you uncle, it's just that my nephew made an oath today, and I asked my uncle to hide it on my behalf." ”

"Why is that?"

"My cousin has a transparent and kind heart, and I can't let her be a burden." When he said this, Nangong Jin's eyes drooped, his crow-like eyelashes covered the emotions in his eyes, but the corners of his mouth hooked up a faint arc.

Father Qin replied in a deep voice, "Hmm." ”

"My nephew is leaving." Nangong Jin finished speaking and left.

The moment the door opened, a gust of wind suddenly hit the face, and people couldn't help but squint.

……

Nangong Jin left, and Father Qin also left the study.

All the way to the door of the ancestral hall, I saw Qin Ran kneeling alone inside from a distance.

Even though the girl is kneeling, her back is still straight, and her thin body seems to hide endless strength, which makes people can't help but look sideways.

Father Qin walked in, came to Qin Ran, looked down at the pale Qin Ran, and said in a deep voice, "Do you know what's wrong?" ”

Qin Ran pursed his lips, and the hand hidden in his sleeve pinched himself fiercely, making the already blurred vision a little more sober, "I don't know!" ”

Father Qin looked at Qin Ran, who refused to admit defeat even so, flicked his sleeves angrily, turned around and wanted to leave, "Since that's the case, then you can kneel well!" ”

Father Qin took a few steps angrily, and suddenly there was a sound of a heavy object falling behind him, and he turned back angrily, "You ......"

All of Father Qin's rebukes were stuck in his throat.

Watching his daughter, who has always loved him, fall to the ground silently, his heart was complicated for a while, a little regretful, a little angry, and a little puzzled.

I don't understand why Qin Ran can't hold it anymore, why he still doesn't want to say a word to soften and admit his mistake.

Without waiting for him to react, a figure rushed in faster and more urgently than him, and walked out as soon as he picked up Qin Ran on the ground.

Father Qin looked at Nangong Jin who suddenly appeared, and frowned, "Why are you here?" ”

Isn't it time to go back and rest?
